Ive seen a lot of posts about the poor weather contiuity, but the film follows 3 timelimes, 1 hour, 1 day and 1 week. The film is not a continuous timeline and flits between the different stories and days during the evacuation, back and forth, hence the changing weather. The director explained this on radio 4 last week so i knew to expect it, but can appreciate it can look odd. Watch it a few times and it will make sence.

Am i reading those accounts right that around 1/4 of the donations received were spent on Salaries! Fair enough run the whole project as a business and pay what you want in salaries. But when that business model relies so heavily on public donations it does not sit right with me at all, especially when the donation drives are centered around keeping XH558 Flying where in reality it also goes to funding what I would deem excessive salaries.

Heard a rumour there is a spit at finningley, any ideas which one?

If I presume right that the S-76 belongs to the well known owner of a digger company, may we be seeing a change of ownership of a Spifire soon?

Just reading between the lines…
